Chapter 1188
“Does ruining me make you happy, Wendy? Does trampling my pride and crushing me into the dirt give you a thrill?”
Hearing this, Wendy finally understood that Nathan had never truly loved her. The only thing he had ever loved was her money.
She offered a bitter smile, trying to suppress the raging fury within her. “Nathan, I’m not happy at all. I wish I had never met you. Starting today, get out of my sight. Whether you live or die has absolutely nothing to do with me anymore.”
Whatever happened to them from now on was no longer her problem.
“No, no, no, Wendy! We still have our four sons! Are you really going to let them watch me live on the streets and do nothing?”
Mentioning her sons only enraged Wendy further. She snapped, screaming at him, “Nathan, you’re the one who threw them away! You abandoned them! You ruined their lives! Aside from manipulating them into doing your dirty work, did you ever act like a real father for even a single second?”
“Now that you’re penniless, you actually expect them to take care of you? How can you be so utterly shameless?”
“How did Jerome lose the use of his legs? Jared is missing. Colin was humiliated into working as your daughter’s driver. Benson is trapped abroad and can’t come back.”
“Nathan, put your hand on your heart and ask yourself-do you have any right to demand their help?”
As Wendy listed off every single atrocity he had committed against his own children, the weight of his actions crashed down on him.
He was drowning in regret.
Thinking back to how callously he had abandoned his four sons, he realized just how incredibly stupid he had been.
Tears streamed down his face as he looked at Wendy in total desperation. “Wendy, I was
brainwashed by Joanna and Sophia! They pushed me into abandoning the boys! They kept saying they just wanted a happy family. I felt so guilty and sorry for them that I divorced you and gave up the kids. But I know I was wrong now! Even a terrible man deserves a second chance, doesn’t he? Can’t you just give me one more chance?”
He couldn’t fathom a life with nothing. To him, poverty was the most terrifying nightmare imaginable.
He was accustomed to spending money like water. He wanted to spend his final years in total luxury.
The massive fall from grace was pushing him to the brink of a mental breakdown.
Snot and tears mixed on his face as he begged her, “Wendy, let’s just remarry. We can ignore each other’s pasts. We’ll have a great life. We can spend our golden years with the boys! Please!”
Wendy seized the moment. “Nathan, I can forgive you, but you have to tell me— where is Jared?”
She had come to see him today specifically to hear it straight from his mouth.
She needed to know exactly how Joanna had targeted Jared.
Sophia panicked when she heard this. “Nathan, don’t say a word! Keep your mouth shut! She’s doing this on
she just wants to know
how Jared died! You might hav
nothing
ow but we still h
Joanna. If Joanna gets arrested,
you’ll truly have no one left!”
But right now, Nathan only cared about securing Wendy’s forgiveness. He wasn’t
listening to Sophia at all.
He was thrilled. If Wendy had
secretly transferred all her assets, that meant she was still a billionaire! This was his chance to turn everything around. He asked eagerly, “Wendy, if I tell you the truth will you really remarry me?”
